Falling in love, falling down, both involve uncontrollable trajectory. In both life and art we seek balance, but in the fall we’re faced with the physical body hurtling towards some unknown end, which might be immensely painful, even fatal, and often shocking. Yet during that physical trajectory there can be elation and grace, the body describing arcs which to the person falling can feel magical, mystifying, but also maybe terrifying as the ground approaches, with the inevitable hit of hard reality.
